Cristina was born in Romania where she completed her undergraduate, Masters and PhD studies in Sociology. After graduation, she taught Sociology for 10 years at a Romanian university. She moved to Canada in September 2005 and graduated from UBC Law School in 2008. While enrolled in the Law School she was awarded the Malcolm MacIntyre Memorial Entrance Scholarship in Law (2005-2006), the Hugh Ladner Memorial Prize in Labour Relations (2006-2007), and the Bereskin & Parr Prize in Industrial and Intellectual Property Law (2007-2008). She articled with the BC Ministry of Attorney General, Criminal Justice Branch, Crown Counsel Office, Kamloops, and she was called to the Bar in November 2009. In January 2010, she joined Allan Francis Pringle where she will be practicing criminal law and family law. She is looking forward to becoming an outstanding lawyer and serving her clients with dedication and professionalism. “As a Sociology Ph.D., I bring to my legal practice sharp analytical skills and the ability to relate to people, to listen and understand their problems and to address their concerns. I do believe that the characteristics that set a great lawyer apart are integrity, honesty and dedication to the cause of their clients.” |
